This notebook case is exactly what I needed for my baby computer and cords. It is a good color to catch my eye when looking for it, the construction is excellent and the pricing was ok...

I have an Asus 10.2" netbook and wanted a small case to hold it and the peripherals.

This one looked promising, and once I decided I could live with the color, I bought it - after all, my netbook is the weird brownish/maroon one :-)

The case holds the netbook with very little side-to-side free space (that is good) and leaves about 1/2 to 1 inch at most along the top - so it is relatively snug and larger size netbooks will not fit.

There is an external pocket about 6 x 6 x 1 with a slight expansion slit in the middle which holds an AC adaptor, cord, and mouse. The only goof I see is the velco on the flap runs top to bottom, whereas the velcro on the pocket runs side to side so the overlap is not as big as perhaps it should be. And, if the upper portion of the pocket bulges out too much the flap will not secure it.

There is another pocket on the back that is the full width, but only thick enough for some papers or a small magazine. An 8-1/2 x 11 piece of paper just makes it in without crinkling, but 2 inches will stick out as high as the handle. I'd fold those in 1/2.

There is a zipper across the top and about 1/3 the way down the sides. At first I was a bit skeptical about a zipper scratching the netbook, but in actual use I do not think it will be a problem.

The handle lies flat against the top of the case but slides out a bit when carried. I guess it will work, though there appears to be a little extra force applied to the tunnel of material where the handle exits, and I think over the long-term that will be where the material rips or the stitching comes loose. Still it seems sturdy, so the long-term should be a long time :-)

Carries my Dell netbook nicely. Sufficient cushioning, lightweight and i love the handle!! I also keep my charger in the front pocket.

This is a great product for a great price. If you dont need a large bag, just enough for your netbook and charger, this is a great bag. The only thing I would add to it is a shoulder strap to free up your hands.

bought this for my samsung netbook and it works well. probably just as good as the more expensive units. worth it. cape guy

This is a really good case. It holds my netbook snugly and is very protective. The durability and craftsmanship is excellent. There is a nice pocket in the front for cords and your little mouse. I don't think I could have gotten a better case if I paid more. The price was great considering what you get.
